Yvonne Rainer
Trio A
1978
Trio A consists of a four-and-a-half-to-five-minute sequence of discrete movements that, with the exception of walking, are never repeated. Although it appears effortless, the dance is painstaking to learn in its precise articulation of hands, arms, shoulders, feet, and legs. It is a signature work by Rainer, who in the 1960s transposed to dance the ideas that were then giving shape to the era’s Minimalist sculpture and painting, abandoning the aesthetics of classical and modern dance—which were rooted in virtuosic technique and expression—in favor of an unenhanced physicality and uninflected continuity of motion.

It is the time when the cabbage is served with wrath
and the calf with hate,
it is the time when death draws wine from nightshade,
it is the time when the blinder you are the more you stare,
it is the time when field boundaries are ploughed up,
it is the time when the hot tear knows
that it cries alone,
it is the time when the wolf grabs letter and book,
it is the time when the searchlight is on the spirit
it is the time when you cannot love your own unhappiness because it is everyone's.

The Playground Project, Les Halles
Paris, France
1970
“Les Halles, the former wholesale market in the center of Paris, had already been closed by 1970 but the structures were still there for some time, waiting to be demolished the following year. Xavier de la Salle, Simon Koszel and David Roditi were given one the pavilions, a ten thousand square feet area with no walls and a roof made of glass and iron. What they set up there was not so different from their earlier works, and the formal vocabulary was more or less the same. They had a very innovative approach to outdoor games as they were influenced by psychologist Jean Piaget […]
What made this project particularly distinctive was the context. François Mathey became interested in the first place not just because of the design but also “the social issues raised by the intention to install them in public spaces.”
